Hedychium gracile var. calcaratum
Hedychium gracile var. calcaratum has no distribution in Nepal and I could not find its information in POWO, GBIF, CoL, WFO and IPNI.
Hedychium gracile var. calcaratum -This combination is yet to be published.
You can also check with H. griffithianum also.
Looks like Hedychium griffithianum Wall. also but could not finalize !
Can the attached images be of Hedychium gracile?
H. gracile is having linear lanceolate leaves.
So, we take this as Hedychium griffithianum Wall. or yet to be published new var. sp. Hedychium gracile var. calcaratum having distribution in India and Nepal ?
So where do we finally keep it for the time being?
Hedychium gracile
